+Overview: service.yaml
+======================
+
+The :code:`service.yaml` file contains all data about services, service
+categories and the related documents of each service. The file is
+used as a base for several internal and external applications or
+websites like the Helpcenter 3.0 where the information about the document
+repositories and its properties are stored.
+
+File structure
+--------------
+
+The file is based on the yaml-file format and has three main sections
+which can be compared with database tables in a relational database.
+
+* documents: contains the information about every single document and its type
+  like umn, api-ref etc.
+
+* service category: contains the keyword and title of the service category
+
+* services: contains the repository information about the internal (Gitea) and
+  external location (GitHub) and all the necessary parameters of the service itself
+
+These sections, or better "tables" have
+their own keys and foreign keys so that the tables are linked together and
+the related information can be fetched.
+For the :code:`services` table
+the key is :code:`service_type` which has the foreign key in the
+:code:`documents` table. So a service can have multiple documents and each
+document can only be linked to one service.
+The key :code:`service_category` table is :code:`name` of the service category
+which is then used in the :code:`services` table as foreign key.
